HBF-306C Handheld Body Fat Loss Monitor

Q: How is the calculation for body fat % different in normal mode and athlete mode?

When using the Athletic option, My body fat% seems to have a lower reading. But on averages its about 0.2 - 0.6% less than in normal mode. The way I see it is if you wok out at least 5 days or more a week, place it in Athletic mode. Obviously if you play a sporst every year and are training throughout the year for it, same thing. But if you are a person who works out 1-4 days a week and you're working out very lightly, or just to maintain a current body type, then Normal is what you want.The book suggestions are as follows:Normal Mode: For People with lower activity, frequency, intensity and time or for people who are currently not exercising or activeAthlete Mode: For people with higher activity, frequency, intensity and time.I work out at least 6 days a week, 3 of those days I work out twice a day. I do not play sports on the regular, but I do stay active more than not.

Q: Does anyone know why body fat reading varies with age? I'm 40.6% at age 72 & 30.5% at age 32 - rest of data the same.

These devices are not 100% accurate, but no method is and these are better than most other methods and will give you pretty good results. If you want, you can pay for some really expensive evaluations by a professional measuring bouyancy and so on. The variance with age is most likely due to differences in other aspects of body composition with age. For example, as you age, your body retains significantly less water. An infant is about 70% water, whereas an elderly female is about 45% water. Other factors vary as well, and many will change your body's resistance to electricity. These measure your resistance to electric current - body fat, for example, has a different resistance than muscle. Make sure you cover as much of the metal with your hands as possible as well to increase conductivity - it assumes you are touching the entire plate. Learned about the different methods in college while studying nursing.

Q: What height does this monitor go up to??

I am not aware of height limit. I have used it on a person who is 6'4''

Q: How accurate is this on post-menopausal women? Why does this matter? Thx

I think it would matter if you're using a math formula to help calculate percent body fat. After menopause a woman's estrogen level drops so they probably get more fat and less muscle (I assume estrogen helps keep muscle mass). I know that for men testosterone is responsible for a lot of our muscles. After I was fixed a ton of my muscles turned to fat so i'm assuming it's the same for women after menopause, just not as extreme.Your estrogen level could have a big effect on your amount of fat and muscles.
